Nicholas Singleton Won't Make His NFL Debut on Sunday

Sunday, September 13, 8:06 AM

Tennessee Titans running back Nicholas Singleton (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Week 1 against the New York Jets. Despite being a Day 3 pick this year, Singleton drew plenty of buzz after the NFL Draft based on his production at Penn State and his role in the Titans' offense. However, fantasy managers should pump the brakes on the excitement, at least for now. The 22-year-old will watch Week 1 from the sideline while Tony Pollard, Tyjae Spears, and Julius Chestnut round out the Titans' backfield. Singleton's next chance to play will come next Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 2.

Riley Nowakowski News

Steelers Select Riley Nowakowski at No. 169 Overall

Saturday, April 25, 11:23 AM

The Pittsburgh Steelers have selected Indiana tight end prospect Riley Nowakowski with the 169th overall pick in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Nowakowski caught 32 passes for 387 yards and two receiving touchdowns in the Hoosiers' national championship-winning offense last year. He also got involved as a fullback, scoring two rushing touchdowns. We could see him take on a similar hybrid fullback/tight end role in Pittsburgh, serving as the team's replacement for Connor Heyward, who signed with the Raiders this offseason. Assuming that's the case, Nowakowski doesn't have a clear path to fantasy relevance. He can be avoided in most fantasy football drafts.
